Ralink Technology has chipset with GPL driver (outside of mainline kernel,
also in -mm kernel iirc). Zydas also have GPL driver (in mainline
kernel).
Ralink chipset takes 40mA less then Zydas. Both are 802.11g and can be
connected over USB. I do not know can they be connected over SPI.
IIRC both are 3.3V so no need for +5V at all.
